I am working on improving our business operations here with my new company….
A couple things that have become apparent to me are as follows:
- We need a good and affordable CRM to make sure that we are taking full advantage of existing and developing customer relationships. I would love to know what systems you are using. I am currently doing a free trial with Salesforce.com
- Marketing Campaigns. Free resources for press releases, website linking opportunities with “green” businesses or organizations. As I improve our web presence I will need to generate traffic with out blowing the budget.
- Community Involvement. It is vital that we get involved with local business and community service organizations so we can serve our community in a meaningful way. What organizations are you involved with?
- Social Media. I am a huge believer in using social media to get our message out but also to get a pulse on what people are thinking and talking about. Suggested tools or sites that you have success with would also be valuable to us.
I would love to hear from other business owners or managers on what you are doing to improve and grow your business. If there is anything I can do to help you with your business please let me know.
